9 Passengers & freight
9.1 General
9.1.1 Smoking
It is strongly recommended that smoking be prohibited at all times in aircraft

9.1.2 Alcohol & drugs
Personnel under the influence of alcohol or drugs must not be allowed to board any aircraft unless under medical supervision. The operator’s check-in staff should be trained to recognise the signs of substance abuse and alert their management for appropriate action to remove the passenger from the flight manifest.

9.1.3 Operation of portable electronic devices
The use of small (laptop/notebook) portable computers by passengers in business aircraft may be permitted with the following provisions:
. 
The flight crew have been advised and agreed to their use.

. 
The equipment is switched off during take-off and landing.

. 
Any wireless transmitting devices installed on the computer (eg Wi-Fi, GPRS) are switched off before take-off and remain off for the duration of the flight.

. 
When not in use, the equipment should be securely stowed.

Due to the confined space in helicopter cabins, the use of laptop/notebook computers is not recom-mended.
Passenger operated devices specifically prohibited during flight include any transmitting device which radiates radio frequency signals such as Citizen Band radios, cellular/mobile telephones, wire-less network cards in laptop computers (Wi-Fi, GPRS), and wireless email devices (eg Blackberry.). At the discretion of the aircraft operator use of equipment with these devices fitted may be permit-ted ‘off-line’ in flight if they have a ‘flight mode’ or the wireless device can be turned off before flight and remain off for the duration of the flight.

9.1.4 Weight & balance
Prior to takeoff, the pilot in command (PIC) should verify that fuel and oil requirements are correct, and weight and centre of gravity limits of the aircraft have been calculated and within the limits for flight.

9.2 Cargo
9.2.1 Weighing & documentation
Operators will verify the contents of each piece of cargo offered for transport by air. All cargo will be weighed separately and manifested.

9.2.2 Cabin area cargo
Cargo carried inside the passenger compartment should be adequately secured using cargo nets, seat belts, and/or tie-down straps, and must not obstruct normal or emergency exits

9.2.3 Hazardous materials (dangerous goods)
Passenger Flights
Most hazardous materials are prohibited onboard passenger flights including certain explosives, flammable fluids and gases, chemicals, and radioactive materials. Some items for example lique-fied acetylene are forbidden for transport by air, whilst others are subject to very specific quantity, packaging and segregation limitations and in some instances may be allowed on passenger flights or restricted to cargo only flights.
